This station is located near the popular Vega City Mall and serves the residential areas of BTM Layout and JP Nagar 3rd & 4th Phase. This metro station will also act as the terminal station of the proposed Orange Line under Namma Metro Phase 3.

As per the latest updates, this metro station, under the first phase (Pink Line), covering a total distance of 7.5km stretch (Kalena Agrahara - Tavarekere), is expected to be operational around December 2025 [2] instead of September 2025. [3][4][5][6][7]

History

[edit]

Pink Line

[edit]

In March 2017, the Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL) sought bids for building the JP Nagar 4th Phase metro station on the 7.5 km Kalena Agrahara - South Ramp section of the 21.25 km Pink Line of Namma Metro. This section comprises 5 stations, excluding Jayadeva Hospital, which was part of a joint venture between HCC - URC Constructions. Initially, Simplex Infrastructures won the tender in September 2017 but due to slow progress, their contract was terminated. [8] In July 2021, GR Infraprojects became the lowest bidder and was awarded the Rs 364.87 Crore contract for this section. They commenced the construction of this metro station as per the agreement.
